World Watching

"Nothing that I can do will change the structure of the universe.
But maybe, by raising my voice, I can help in the greatest of all causes
-- goodwill among men and peace on earth." A. Einstein

No Comment

I just can't. If I begin to investigate my feelings in regards to what happened in Spain I know I will be enraged. To all those who want to try and justify it listen very carefully to me: THERE ARE NO EXCUSES. NONE. Nothing anyone says will EVER justify the tragedy. I hate these terrorists. I hate everything they stand for. All they want is to destroy lives and families. What right do they have to do that? NONE! May they all burn in hell. I don't care what message they are trying to send, all this unjustified death sends me one clear message: get rid of the terrorists using any means necessary. Period. Kill them before they can kill anyone else. I don't care how that makes me sound. And as Dave at Israellycool puts it: Now ask yourselves some hard questions: Is the root cause Israeli occupation of PLO Arab land? Or is it a fundamentalist belief that Islam should be the dominant world religion?
Is this "resistance" against occupation? Or is it really a religiously-motivated war of civilizations? I know at least Al Qaeda knows the answer to this.

In other news I cannot handle what the FCC is trying to do to Howard Stern. I will post more about that later. Bush will lose my vote if Howard goes off the air.

Sun continues

Goodness! It is still so warm and sunny. Like a fool I keep leaving my camera at home when I go outside. I walked through campus last night around 10pm and it was spectacular. The full moon behind the Campanile (the clock tower) with not a cloud in the sky. The sky was just beautiful. The lights of the bay were sparkling in the distance and for a moment I forgot that I had an exam the next day. I wanted to rush home to get my camera but then decided against it. I didn't even have to wear a sweater! It was warm enough to walk around in a T-shirt! It is now 9am and already warm! I think I might cut out of my last class today and go enjoy the beauty by a nice hike in the hills. Oh man is that going to be tempting! :) OK, well it's off to take an exam! I would be stressed except this weather agrees with me. Who knew that some sun and warmth could lift one's spirits so much!

SUN!

The sun is back out, brighter than ever! It feels like summer. Oh man it is gonna be tough to study today with the birds chirping outside and the warmth and light seeping in to tempt me. I'll definitely take a break at some point to go out there and run around but man oh man do I wish it were summer. Ooof!

WELCOME to my blog! I recently graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with a Bachelor's of Science
in Bioengineering. I am so excited about starting a new chapter of my life. I am off to travel for a while and then settle down
for an indefinite amount of time in Erez Israel. I will be in New Zealand for 2 months (jan-mar) and then should hopefully arrive in
Israel in time for Pesach (Passover).

Things I like to write about:

I write about all kinds of things but mostly about how I see and view the events that happen around me
and around the world. Some topics of interest are: Israel, biology, health, Judaism, Berkeley insanity, and the general insanity around the world. Obviously, everything here is my opinion.
I write about events the way I see them, through my eyes. During my traveling, I hope to update about the things I see. I love to explore the world and meet people and see different things.
So enjoy!
